A Bittersweet Morning

October 9, 2003

Positive:

1. I received my digital camera from the factory repair center. It is working swimmingly.
2. I received a brand new drive from LaCie that seems to work without problem. I'm upset it took three tries to fix the problem, but all should be well now.
3. The Cubs rocked the Marlins 12-3 last night.
4. My weekend begins tonight.

Negative:

1. I received two $100 parking tickets. One was deserved and I shall pay it. The other was for double parking when I was not even almost double parked. This one will be fought.

For some reason, I thought there was more than that. Truth be told, the parking tickets only really upset me for about an hour, during which time I was groggy and would likely have been grumpy anyway. Now, despite a lack of sleep, I am feeling chipper.

In other news, Jori has taught me the wonders of looking at people's shoes on the subway. It is an excellent distraction when you don't have anything else to do. I highly recommend it.
